Interlinking module Electronics module Electronics module The housing top part of CPX-AP-A modules is called the electronic module. Electronic modules provide the necessary connections for sensors, actuators or interfaces. Interlinking module The housing bottom part of CPX-AP-A modules is called the interlinking module. Interlinking modules are used for the electrical and mechanical linkage of the modules.
– Access to system parameters (read/write), input/output signals and diagnostics data (depending on the interface). Input/output module Fig. 4: Input/output module, example CPX-AP-A-16DI-D-M12-5P The input/output modules include various module types: – Digital input/output modules can be used, for example, to query sensor signals or to control actuators.

The power to the automation system is supplied by feeds in the interlinking modules. They forward the operating voltage and the load voltage to the adjacent modules. The voltages can be supplied jointly by one fixed power supply or separately by two fixed power supplies. Festo — CPX-AP-A — 2022-07...
Fuse for load voltage line protection The load supply PL can be switched on and off at any time. When switched off, the electrical outputs or valves are not active, even if they are actuated. Festo — CPX-AP-A — 2022-07...
The earth terminal is a functional earth connection. It serves to reduce the immunity to interference and is not for protection. Options for earthing: – Left end plate – Left end plate and supply cable – Supply cable Festo — CPX-AP-A — 2022-07...
– Earthing cables should be as short as possible. Commissioning In order to avoid connection and addressing faults, the automation system CPX-AP-A must be commis- sioned as follows: 1. Check assembly and connections. 2. Configure the settings at the interface.
